Aren't Lamela and Eriksen the same age?

I stopped reading after the summary said Paulinho was average and Chadli was good.

not a bad summary there Siggy.

Paulinho has been frankly pants until stoke, where he suddenly looked a class apart. The test will be whether he can perform consistantly to that kind of standard. If he can then we'll have some player.

I think generally pretty much all the players are looking better under sherwood.

Yeah agree and long may it continue

Soldado - Don summed up perfectly in the article below. Starting to show class and has great all round play with the ability to pick a defence splitting pass! A couple of goals is needed for his confidence then he can really flourish. 1st teamer.

Lets be frank - he could only improve

still worst signing of the season by some distance - actually that could be your other 30million man

Not quite how I put was it now?

Maybe you should learn to read properly

Unfortunetley your not far wrong.

30 million spent on Lamela was too much but I still believe he will come good.

I never bought into this idea that these players weren't good enough for us. Their careers prior to Spurs were impressive, and I really believe with time we'll have a very strong squad.

Super

Me too, I think we have the makings of a special group of young, talented players.

============================



That's an indictment that could apply to the whole squad, bar none!

Only since we reverted back to 4-4-2, the players have been able to express themselves and a lot of players now are showing quality in their respective positions.

By the way, rating players is a personal opinion.

soldado cost 13 mill up front.

lamela I think was about 23 mill up front the figures banded about are including add ons, which means they have hit certain targets

I am reminded of when Harry told Pav to "Go out and run about a bit". And SAF saying you don't train players like Rooney, you just throw a ball on the grass and enjoy. I think we are at the go out and run about a bit stage with potential to just chucking the ball out on the grass and enjoying it. If we can ride out the injury's and if Sherwood doesn't over complicate matters we might just have the makings of a special group of players. Lets not forget, Its half way through the season and we are a few points off the CL places, with 7 new players to integrate, not a bad position to be in.

Paulinho has been pants until Stoke? Clearly you haven't been watching Spurs games. He has been the best player out of all your signings.

======================================

Paulinho has been ordinary so far with only glimpses of what he is about, against Stoke he looked different class and maybe the break after long season and confed cup did him good.

All of them are now starting to settle in, improved performances from Eriksen, Soldado, Paulinho and Vlad. Lamela, Chadli and Capoue have had injuries and not as much game time but are slowly improving and work hard for the team with a horrendous injury list.
